What to do if children have eye allergies

We should understand that children's eye allergy is a disease that people should pay attention to, and the symptoms cannot be completely eliminated in the hospital. Children's eye allergies are caused by not paying attention to eye health. Patients should lead a regular life and eat a healthy diet. Eye allergies in children can make people lose their mood to work and have a huge impact on the eyes. Everyone wants to get rid of children's eye allergies and go to the hospital's ophthalmology department for relevant examinations and treatment in time. Follow the editor to find out what to do if children have eye allergies?

1. Treatment methods

The treatment of allergic conjunctivitis can be divided into two phases: acute phase and remission phase. In the acute phase, steroids and anti-allergic eye drops can be used for short-term treatment. After the condition stabilizes, non-irritating, pure natural plant desensitization factors can be used for complete desensitization. After all, children are still in the stage of growth and development. Pure plant desensitization factors can not only avoid the side effects of drugs on children, but also are more conducive to the absorption of children's physique.

II. Introduction

Allergic conjunctivitis is a common problem among ophthalmology outpatients. It can affect both adults and children, but it is more common in children, especially those with allergic constitutions. In fact, allergic conjunctivitis is caused by an allergic reaction of the mucous membrane on the surface of the eye to special allergen particles suspended in the air. In addition to eye discomfort, patients may also experience nasal allergy symptoms, so it is clinically also called allergic rhinitis conjunctivitis.

3. Solutions

1. In addition to taking the baby to see a doctor in time, mothers should also look for obvious allergens in the living environment, such as newly renovated rooms, flowers and plants in green areas, fish in food, etc.; especially pets at home and carpets, which will emit a large amount of allergens.

2. Trying to keep your baby away from allergens can effectively cure allergic eye diseases and prevent your baby from rubbing his eyes due to eye discomfort.

3. There are fewer medicines for treating allergic conjunctivitis, and the effects are not very good. Only isolating and eliminating allergens can reduce attacks.

IV. Precautions

General medication can only alleviate symptoms but cannot shorten the course of the disease. If conjunctivitis is not treated, viral conjunctivitis may resolve within 1 week. To reduce the discomfort of allergic conjunctivitis in children, doctors will have them use anti-inflammatory eye drops. Normally, if parents find sticky pus on their child's eyelashes, they should wipe it clean with cotton soaked in cold boiled water. To prevent the spread of infection, wash your hands immediately after contact with the affected area. Because viral conjunctivitis is particularly contagious, clothes and towels at home should not be washed together.

If a baby with conjunctivitis is treated right away, the symptoms of infection that occur at birth should disappear quickly. Inflammatory or allergic conjunctivitis in older children rarely causes lifelong vision problems.
